The role of Antarctic marine protists in trophodynamics and global change and the impact of UV-B on these organisms - Voyage 6 1997/1998 samples

Locations of sampling sites for ASAC project 40 on voyage 6 of the Aurora Australis in the 1997/1998 season. Samples were collected during March of 1998.

The final dataset will contain information on chlorophyll, carotenoids, coccolithophorids and species identification and counts.

Public Summary from the project:

This program ... aims to determine the role of single celled plants, animals, bacteria and viruses in Antarctic waters. We quantify their vital role as food for other organisms, their potential influence in moderating global climate change through absorption of CO2 and production of DMS, and determine their response to effect of climate change.

1997/1998航季，南极光号（Aurora Australis）第6次航行中ASAC项目40号的采样点位分布。本次采样于1998年3月完成。

最终数据集将涵盖叶绿素、类胡萝卜素、颗石藻（coccolithophorids）相关信息，以及物种鉴定与计数数据。

项目公开摘要：
本项目旨在探究南极海域内单细胞植物、动物、细菌及病毒的生态功能：量化其作为其他生物食物的关键作用，阐明其通过吸收CO₂、生成二甲基硫（DMS）缓解全球气候变化的潜在影响，并明确其对气候变化影响的响应机制。
